Marriage in crisis

"Angeli is out on business. When she heard that I was in Qingcheng, she said she would come over too!" Jima looked at me, "She knows I'm here to visit you!"

"Really? When will she arrive?" I asked with a happy look on my face. "I'm glad you can come!"

"If everything goes well, she should be here this afternoon!" Jima smiled thoughtfully, "Isn't Mr. Rong here?"

I shook my head. "Yes, unfortunately, he is in Beijing. He has business there and has been a bit busy lately!"

Jima nodded, "Oh! He's always in the capital?"

"He's not always in Beijing. He just took over my grandmother's business recently, and he needs to sort it out and get familiar with everywhere. So he's been in Beijing all the time lately!" I said truthfully. After all, this was something I probably couldn't hide from her.

"Mr. Rong is a business genius, so it's inevitable that he's busy! Mother always mentions that the people in the Rong family have special brains!" She smiled peacefully, calmly and at ease, as if there was no sense of strangeness between her and me.

I suddenly thought of Rong Yingluo and deliberately asked her, "We can't compare with the Rong family of Country M. They are the main branch, and our Rong family is a branch of the Rong family. We can't be compared with the young master! Miss Jima must be very familiar with Young Master Rong!"

Jima probably didn't expect me to mention Rong Yingluo. She picked up the teacup and took another sip of tea.

Then he said calmly, "We are familiar with each other, but our relationship is average! We rarely visit each other on our own initiative."

"Oh? Is that so! I thought you guys are close and would visit each other often!" I explained, but actually continued to ask.

"In recent years, the Rong family has had fewer interactions with my mother, especially after Young Master Rong took over the Rong family. Young Master Rong is a very unique person! He is swift and resolute, and is decisive in killing people! He is as brave as a man!"

Jima gave a compliment, but to be honest, I didn’t hear any compliment in it!

"Do you keep in touch often?" Jima asked, putting down her teacup, then her eyes examined me.

I shook my head, "No!"

I answered confidently, "To be honest, this is the first time I have seen Young Master Rong in your house. I have not lived with my A Yu for long, and I don't know anyone in the Rong family.

You know, plus Ayu and the Rong family only have a few minor conflicts, so they haven’t been in contact much in recent years. I’m not as familiar with the Rong family as you guys are!”

I feel like she's here to test our relationship with the Rong family.

"Yes, everyone has heard about what happened back then!" Jima said, "My mother was on good terms with the head of the Rong family at that time, so she knows something about it!"

"It can be seen that the old lady is very familiar with the Rong family!" I also kicked the ball back to Jima, "The old lady always mentioned that the head of the Rong family had helped her, so why doesn't he seem to be close to the young master Rong!"

After I asked this question, I smiled awkwardly and said, "Ms. Jima, please don't laugh at me. I didn't mean to ask!"

Jima said sympathetically, "I understand! Your question is normal! At that time, my mother and I had just arrived in Country M. Everything was unfamiliar to us. It was really difficult at that time!"

"The last time I heard that you and the old lady went to Country M was..." I paused, looked at Jima and waited for her to continue.

Sure enough, Jima continued what I said, "Yes! At first, it was my mother who took me to Country M to treat my illness."

"Oh!" I said as if I understood.

"I have been weak and sickly since I was a child. In addition, I am a girl, so my father doesn't pay much attention to me. My mother was very sad and had a disagreement with my father. The relationship became cold. Later, she gave up everything and resolutely took me to Country M to treat my illness and let me grow up healthily. After all, Country M is a country that advocates equality and freedom between men and women!"

"Your mother is very brave and great!" I said insincerely.

"Well! My mother is really brave! She took me to a completely unfamiliar country alone. So when we first arrived, we felt very undignified!" She said this weakly.

"Later, we were robbed once. The head of the Rong family saw that we were also yellow people, so he rescued us without hesitation. That's how we got to know the Rong family! Later, when we encountered difficulties several times, my mother had no choice but to ask for help from the Rong family.

But the head of the Rong family did not refuse, so we have contact with the Rong family. My mother is also grateful. She also helped the head of the Rong family do some things that he could not do. She saved the reputation of the Rong family! The two families have been in contact!"

Jima said it lightly, but it seemed like she was revealing something to me?

What do you mean by "Mother is also grateful. She also helped the head of the Rong family do some things that he couldn't do! She saved the reputation of the Rong family!" Ah!
